Inventor: YAMAGISHI TOORU
IPC: H04N19/50
Filed: 1996-07-12
Abstract: Picture data are reproduced by fast forward (F.F.) or fast backward (F.B.) reproduction from moving picture data including picture frames belonging to the first picture frame group obtained by compressing picture data in accordance with intra-frame method and picture frames belonging to the second picture frame group obtained by compressing picture data in accordance with inter-frame prediction method and further coded at a high efficiency by a high efficiency compression system. During the real time reproduction, an average interval between two adjacent picture frames belonging to the first frame group is obtained. Further, during F.F. or F.B. reproduction, a search start position of a first picture frame to be next reproduced after a second picture frame now being reproduced is set based on the obtained average interval, the first and second picture frames belonging to the first picture frame group, and the first picture frame is started to be searched from the set search start position.

IPC: G04F1/06

Abstract: A color-changing, position-reversible gravity flow assembly such as an hourglass assembly having two transparent bulbs (14,16) one above the other and a storage compartment (14C,16C) adjacent each bulb, the bulbs and compartments being joined together by a neck (18). Intercoupling the bulbs and the compartments is a crossover network (D<sub>1</sub>,D<sub>2</sub>) which passes through the neck (18) to couple each bulb to the compartment adjacent the other bulb. In operation, when one bulb and its adjacent compartments are in an up position and are respectively loaded with sand of different color, then sand of one color appears to trickle from the up bulb into the compartment in the down position while sand of another color appears to trickle from the up compartment into the down bulb. The resultant apparent flow of sand from a higher to a lower level creates the illusion that sand flowing out of the up bulb is undergoing a color transformation as it flows into the down bulb.

Abstract: An efficient, cost effective method and apparatus for performing resource allocation of available bit rate (ABR) virtual circuit (VC) in an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network includes an explicit rate switch process performed at at least one switch of an ABR VC. The process provides a fast and more accurate computation of the number of active VCs in an ATM network. Furthermore, the fair share allocation is calculated at the switch in a way that is efficient and lends itself easily to implementation in hardware. For example, in one embodiment, the fair share is implemented using a series of counters and registers controlled by a state machine. This simple hardware implementation enables fast convergence to a current final state so that timely accurate resource utilization and allocation to the ABR VCs can be determined.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for controlling a tuning point and a tuning circuit having
a function of controlling a tuning point, which can selectively tuning each broadcasting
signal by using a varactor diode. During a work for tuning points, a tuning voltage is
applied to the tuning circuit, and a tuning point voltage with respect to the tuning voltage
is stored in a memory section. If the tuning voltage is applied to the tuning circuit, a
control section reads tuning point voltage data stored in the memory section, controls a
voltage generating apparatus based on the read tuning point voltage data and provides the
tuning point voltages for a relevant selected channel to the tuning circuit. Therefore, the
work for tuning points in the manufacturing of a tuner can be omitted and the productivity
and the function of the tuner are improved.

Abstract: In the process of starting an engine 150, the structure of
the present invention lags an open and close timing of an intake
valve 152 of the engine 150, thereby enabling a first motor MG1
mechanically linked with a crankshaft 156 via a damper 157 to
motor the engine 150. When the revolving speed of the engine
150 exceeds a specific range that causes a resonance, the open
and close timing of the intake valve 152 is returned to an ordinary
level, so as to start controls of a fuel supply to the engine
150 and ignition. The lagged open and close timing of the intake
valve 152 decreases the effective compression ratio of the engine
150, thus enabling smooth rotations of the engine 150 and reducing
the amplitude of the torsional vibrations of the crankshaft 156.
This structure enables the revolving speed of the engine 150 to
swiftly pass through the specific range that causes a resonance.
